Although it is six months until the Fringe bandwagon is up and running, already there are almost 100 shows already selling tickets on the www.edfringe.com site.

I Hate Myself So People Will Like Me (and Other Strategies for Success) - One4ReviewI feel distinctly uncomfortable about awarding stars to a show which was about a person’s struggle with their own sense of self-worth. The show is courageous, and what some pithy reviewer reduces it to with some asterisks is irrelevant.

Each of the words in the title to Sian’s show have some relevance to the show, and signify something of what the show will be. Specific meanings are probably best explained by Sian herself at the top of the show. Ms Docksey presents as relatively confident on stage, and although she commented ‘well that bombed, didn’t it?’ a couple of times, it didn’t seem to dim her own enjoyment of the whimsy or the show. Her delivery is fast but her diction is good, as are pace and timing.

I can imagine this being an excellent show for a work night out, or it being booked for corporate social events: the subject matter has relatively wide appeal (everyone eats), and Mr Egg is an excellent performance chef. The fact that he makes poached egg with a wallpaper steamer is just another dimension of brilliance.

I really enjoyed the start of this show and would have been quite happy had in continued for an hour in the same vein. It didn’t, but what followed was also fun. Pat, he explains, has done the feely shows and has had enough, so this one is just for fun.

It’s nearly the end of the Fringe, and this performance certainly felt like it: drained and lacking in energy. It is an early afternoon slot, the audience was small, and the show is free to enter. All of which sound like excuses rather than legitimate reasons. I would describe Ms Dundas is a storytelling stand-up, and the show contains stories around three major topics – politics, the name of the show, and dating.

Godspell is one of those shows where, if you don’t know what is going on, you’re better off not wondering why people dressed in raincoats and wellies are singing to ‘Jesus’ and just sit back and enjoy the music! And very enjoyable this is. With this interpretation of Godspell we have outstanding vocals from a high energy cast with never a dull moment on stage. Not a line or thought has been missed with excellent direction ensuring the show was always flowing.

Spring Awakening, love it or hate it, is always popular at the Fringe and this production was no exception. Staging was good, using this small venue to its best advantage with the cast always staying on stage and becoming a Greek chorus, if you like. Ensemble singing was excellent and powerful with the complicated harmonies of the Song of Purple Summer especially coming over nicely.

If you mix Little Shop of Horrors with Bat Boy, Rocky Horror and Urinetown you will get a good idea of what this show is aiming for. It’s fast, funny and must have one of the highest production values of any show at the Fringe this year. The set is large and detailed, there are costumes galore, great lighting and a live band all supported by excellent direction and choreography. The vocals were simply outstanding from everyone, the vocal ranges simply immense!

Should anyone wish to know, I am instructed to inform people that this show was ‘significant’. This means: ‘sufficiently great or important to be worthy of attention; noteworthy’. I am willing to grant that it is a sufficiently great show and is worthy of the attention of those who like funny things, silly things, and to participate. There’s no explicit plot line to this comedy, just a series of 90° volte faces in three-dimensional space.

Selecting a term

Phrases (e.g. "cloud computing") — use quotes to keep the terms together

Twitter handles (e.g. @username) — returns those who have mentioned or replied to
given user

Bio details (e.g. vegan, Olympics, father)

Advanced terms

Muck Rack's Advanced Search allows for many boolean operators.

AND

Find results that mention multiple specified terms, use AND or
+. For example, ensure each result contains both Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg by
searching Musk AND Zuckerberg or Musk + Zuckerberg.

OR

Use the operators OR or , to broaden your search when you'd like either of
multiple terms to appear in results. (This is the default behavior of our search when no operators
are used). For example, results will contain either cake or cookie by searching cake OR cookie or cake,cookie

NOT

Use NOT or - to subtract results from your search. For
example, searching Disney will yield results about the Walt Disney Company as well as Walt Disney
World Resort. To exclude mentions of Disney World, search for Disney -World or Disney
NOT World.

Phrases

When using one of these operators with a phrase, enclose it in quotation marks. For example, you can
find results about smartphones excluding Apple's iPhone 4S by searching smartphone -"iPhone
4s".

Exact case matching or punctuation

If you're searching for a brand name or keyword that relies on specific punctuation marks or capitalization, you can
find results that match your exact query by adding matchcase: before the keyword you're searching for, like matchcase:E*TRADE .

Combining operators

Use parentheses to separate multiple
boolean phrases. For example, to find journalists talking about having fun in Disney World or
Disneyland, search for ("disney world" OR disneyland) AND fun.

Asterisk

An asterisk can be used to search for any variation of a root word truncated by the asterisk. For example, searching for admin* will return results for administrator, administration, administer, administered, etc.

Near

A near operator is an AND operator where you can control the distance between the words. You can vary the distance the near operation uses by adding a forward slash and number (between 0-99) such as strawberries NEAR/10 "whipped cream", which means the strawberries must exist within 10 words of "whipped cream".
